Positions we need to upgrade


Paa Langfart

Recommended Posts

We got our asses handed to us last night by a team without an offense. Our defense was fairly solid, our special teams were below average and our offense was mediocre.   So where do we go from here ?  What positions do you think G Man needs to upgrade the most in order to get us back to the big game in 2017 and win it ?  And do you still have faith in Shula ball and Riveras preparation of the team ?

Need to continue to revamp special teams. Get  rookies lIke Tyler Lockett and David Johnson, those two guys were able to make impact plays on special teams and later in the season were crucial for their offenses. I am tired of seeing Joe Webb and Fozzy run out of the endzone and get stoned on the 18-20 yard line. The blocking and tackling on special teams is abysmal. Next, youth in the secondary and finally an upgrade for Mike Remmers.

We have Daryl Williams and Tre Boston as sorta heir apparents at OT and S, respectively. Would not mind picking up Eric Weddle though...

 

DE needs to be looked at as #1 ...Jason Pierre Paul is a good option if his hand properly heals...a lot of other good DEs are hitting FA as well

    • I get what you’re saying but the reason I think his mentality underscores it all is that he did have legitimately solid and sometimes even good games at the end of last year after his bench, and against some good teams (PHI, Tampa, KC)   but that was only after the season was shot and everyone thought he was done for. then once he had to play a meaningful game on Sunday he crumbled right back to pre bench form. It’s like he’s only able to when it *doesnt* matter  But all just semantics tbh, we both agree that he ain’t it lol
    • I'm still a big Bryce supporter. I don't look much at his rookie year as that only deepened the hole he has to climb out of. I see this past game as the 1st of his 2nd year.  Judge him based off of his play after his benching.  No argument that is play those first two games last year were about as bad as it gets.  No question. This is the start of year 2 for Canales and he was out coaches against the Jags but I like his process and how he goes about things.  I like that he, Morgan and Tillis seem like a unit and on the same path. Saying we never should have drafted him based on his height and weight is a valid opinion but he was a universal top pick in the draft and elite talent coming out.  I have seen little evidence those are still issues.  He is physical enough to take some monster hits and I don't see a limit to his passing due to his height. The lack of arm strength is a tired argument.  He has the physical ability to make all the necessary NFL throws.   Of course he doesn't have the cannon Cam did coming out but he also doesn't have Cams accuracy and throwing with touch issues.  They are different players and Bryce has a ton of work to do just to be in Cams shadow. Bryce IS part of the problem but he isn't the problem.  His play the last half of the season last year was impressive and showed a ton of growth and improvement. Outside of Horn, Nola and Chuba the whole team and staff looked severely off and not ready.   If Dave calls a great game and other players play average NFL level football and Bryce still plays like this that is when we'll actually have as big an issue at QB as the haters believe. The issues are team wide and it's one game. Also, I like Tepper.
    • They aren't credited with drops.   That's just PFF.  Not sure why they are still being pimped this hard when week 1 really highlights how bad they can be at times.  Especially when they manufactured Bryce's grade like they did.  Some 1984 stuff going on there....PFF telling folks not to believe their eyes and ears.
